Woman and friends host end-of-year party because they ‘take the same taxi’ every day

A woman and her friends have stunned the internet after organizing an end-of-year party simply because they ‘take the same taxi‘ every day.

This surprising story was shared in a post on the popular social media platform X (formerly Twitter) by a relative of one of the women involved.

The woman took to her social media page to describe how her aunt and her friend decided to celebrate with a year-end gathering, all because they ride the same taxi daily.

Her post reads: “My aunt and her taxi friends had a year-end function. Simply because they take the same taxi every day.”

As the post gained traction online, many users flooded the comment section to share their thoughts.

@Lainopt: “I used to be a member whereby this taxi only came at 4pm to fetch 16 passengers from emafemini to town. The agreement was all of us sehla at one bus stop and the taxi only uses the freeway. Funny part was everyone had their designated seat, so u automatically become a family.”
